00:01.730 --> 00:03.440
- So every airman comes
to a point in their career

00:03.440 --> 00:05.140
where they have to ask
themselves whether they want

00:05.140 --> 00:07.580
a mission, or whether
they want to stay enlisted

00:07.580 --> 00:09.290
for the rest of your career.

00:09.290 --> 00:11.700
For airmen who are actually
trying to take missions

00:11.700 --> 00:13.500
back into the same career
field there's an extra

00:13.500 --> 00:14.580
barrier there however,

00:14.580 --> 00:15.900
because they have to
actually have to consider

00:15.900 --> 00:16.810
whether or not they want

00:16.810 --> 00:20.370
to spend the time going
back to a tech school

00:20.370 --> 00:21.760
that they've already attended.

00:21.760 --> 00:23.170
This is not only a problem for them

00:23.170 --> 00:26.070
because they have already attended it,

00:26.070 --> 00:29.560
but they've also actually done the mission

00:29.560 --> 00:32.000
and they have to consider
the family aspect as well.

00:32.000 --> 00:33.310
This also comes into an issue

00:33.310 --> 00:36.820
because of the cost of it
actually has for the Air Force.

00:36.820 --> 00:37.790
So unnecessarily,

00:37.790 --> 00:42.520
if we sent an O and E Vac
say for 13 sierra training,

00:42.520 --> 00:44.990
who's already been in the
one charlie six mission,

00:44.990 --> 00:45.850
it would unnecessarily

00:45.850 --> 00:48.820
cost the air force approximately $45000.

00:48.820 --> 00:52.020
This is training that is
meant to give them the basics.

00:52.020 --> 00:54.230
However, they've actually
already done the mission,

00:54.230 --> 00:56.410
so there's really no point
in sending them back.

00:56.410 --> 01:01.040
Solution, I would suggest
that having a delta course,

01:01.040 --> 01:02.910
so it's going to be a
course that is going to

01:02.910 --> 01:04.590
have differences between the enlisted

01:04.590 --> 01:06.330
and the officer courses.

01:06.330 --> 01:10.590
And this is gonna be
comprised by a couple airmen,

01:10.590 --> 01:12.230
say Parker Airfield,

01:12.230 --> 01:14.150
so maybe 300 hours worth of work,

01:14.150 --> 01:18.240
so approximately $7500, to
the air force as a cost.

01:18.240 --> 01:20.260
They will compile this all together,

01:20.260 --> 01:22.270
good news is this material
already been created,

01:22.270 --> 01:23.103
we just have to

01:23.103 --> 01:25.860
parts out the material
that is actually different.

01:25.860 --> 01:27.640
Once that material is created,

01:27.640 --> 01:30.510
then we would have one maybe
two instructors assigned to

01:30.510 --> 01:32.670
actually teach that course where

01:32.670 --> 01:37.670
the course where would range
anywhere from say three days to

01:37.820 --> 01:39.320
anywhere to a few weeks.

01:39.320 --> 01:41.750
It also depends on the career field,

01:41.750 --> 01:43.870
and the amount of material that's

01:43.870 --> 01:45.320
actually different between the enlisted

01:45.320 --> 01:47.003
and the officer courses.

01:48.900 --> 01:50.450
Also, I would suggest that

01:50.450 --> 01:54.220
the instructors are
either ATC instructors,

01:54.220 --> 01:55.750
if it's deemed necessary,

01:55.750 --> 01:57.960
however, I would actually suggest officers

01:57.960 --> 01:59.690
who have actually been in the career field

01:59.690 --> 02:00.523
and understand what is

02:00.523 --> 02:04.400
necessary for the new officers to know,

02:04.400 --> 02:07.380
that it's different, it's
gonna be different for them.

02:07.380 --> 02:11.540
So overall I would suggest
that we come together,

02:11.540 --> 02:13.130
create a delta course

02:13.130 --> 02:15.453
and you have to keep in
mind it's going to be,

02:16.720 --> 02:20.380
it's going to save the air force
an extreme amount of money,

02:20.380 --> 02:22.760
because if for one 13 sierra

02:22.760 --> 02:24.180
who has a six month long course,

02:24.180 --> 02:27.860
if it costs for them to go for $45000,

02:27.860 --> 02:30.190
then imagine it costs
the entire air force,

02:30.190 --> 02:34.090
how much it costs and also
it takes away the (mumbles).

02:34.090 --> 02:36.560
So there's that one seat
that is being taken away by

02:36.560 --> 02:39.670
someone who's already gone
through the training who

02:39.670 --> 02:41.470
is just going through
the training for the sake

02:41.470 --> 02:44.510
of giving a check mark for a requirement.

02:44.510 --> 02:47.550
So I feel like it is beneficial
for us to pursue this

02:47.550 --> 02:49.980
because not only would it
be financially beneficial

02:49.980 --> 02:51.140
for the air force,

02:51.140 --> 02:54.020
but it would also be beneficial
for man power purposes

02:54.020 --> 02:56.040
because it would put our people back

02:56.040 --> 02:58.943
into the mission faster, who
are already qualified for it.
